Read Malachi 1.6-2.9. In 1.6-2.9: The priests' sins. Making up a third of the entire book, this accusation singles out two priestly sins: making improper offerings (1.6-23) and giving improper instructions (2.4-9). In 1.8: Priestly (Lev 1.3; 22.17-25) and Deuteronomic (Deut 15.19-21) laws prohibit the sacrifice of blemished animals. Deuteronomy specifically forbidding the lame and blind. In 2.4: Levi is the ancestor of Israel's priestly families (1 Chr 6.1-48). In verse 8: Priests were responsible for teaching and instruction. Micah also blames priests for abusing their teaching office (3.11). Comments or Questions..
